Just as we all have different body types that may effect running, each of us have different circumstances that effect our investing.  

This is aside from extenuating circumstances.

All partners need to be adequately protected against circumstance but also just as often against each other.

Ideally I would like to get started in small multi families and could be interested to an FHA loan under the right circumstance.

Sell your interest to the heirs for an amount which is reasonable under the circumstances.
